Theodoret of Cyrus, on Isa 59:15

Theodoret of Cyrus · c. A.D. 393–457
Isa 59:15 · Douay-Rheims
“And truth hath been forgotten: and he that departed from evil, lay open to be a prey: and the Lord saw, and it appeared evil in his eyes, because there is no judgment.”
On this verse:
“He has shown how truth has departed: they did not want to consider their duty, he says, but they have distorted their intelligence so as not to understand what ought to be done and what is useful. "The truth in this has disappeared, and the person who turned away from evil has been besieged." They have distanced themselves so far from the truth that they openly combat those who turn away from perversity and choose the good.”
